It seems that Michael Bay just can't quit Linkin Park as the band seems to have been tapped to contribute a song and possible more for Transformers: Dark of the Moon. According to a source that wishes to remain anonymous, Bay chose "Burning In The Skies" from their current album A Thousand Suns for the movie's soundtrack. As a result instead of Burning as their next single it will now be "Iridescent".

While Linkin Park's involvement has not been officially confirmed, it would not be a surprising move considering the band's relationship with the franchise, previously releasing "What I've Done" for Transformers and "New Divide" for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Chords from those singles were also incorporated into the score of the films. Chances are a music video is also in the works that will use Dark of the Moon footage and ideas. A sample of Burning In The Skies can be found at Amazon or full album samples here.

I've been wondering if LP was going to be involved this time around. I'm a big Linkin Park fan and a fan of the new album, but perhaps it wouldn't be a bad idea to go with different band to do a song for Dark of the Moon. If proven to be true, I look forward to seeing how Burning In The Skies and Iridescent fit into the movie

That's awesome!!! I love Linkin Park and love What I've Done and New Divine!!! Especially New Divine sounds awesome!!!But I don't like the new album at all, it's way too soft. I only like Blackout. But nothing fits Transformers imo.

Michael Bay can't even select the right songs for the movie anymore or he doesn't care. Out of the last Linkin Park tracks he selected that that just doesn't fit the movie. Also it really seems that the Transformers franchise is dead.. they can't pay Linkin Park to write some new songs for the movie? Really? Bay and Spielberg don't care about this franchise anymore. Transformers3 is going to fail. Lazy sloppy work.

@Martinus Prime the name was new devide, not new devinewtf? and @NHLfanwhen was ther ever a rumor the terminator was going to be in the movie(i don't mean the character, just easier to call Arnold that)

I really love "When They Come for Me".. and i can deff see "Burning In The Skies" at the end of the film when the credits are rolling but not in the actual movie..im a big fan of LP and actually won tickets to see them perform in DC (which sadly got canceled)... but its good to see that they are sticking with the Franchise..

linkin park is great an i think they should give chance to brad and mike to come with new colaboration as such in their new album brad has not played to much of metal so this would be a nice chance for him also for lp's new sountrack

Linkin Park is my favorite band ever! and nothing can change that. Linkin park is just amazing to see in concert I actually went to the weenie roast this year and they did GREAT! I have been going to their concert for each album and all of their songs are awesome! if you guys dont like them keep the comments to yourself please:P I am a true LINKIN PARK fan<3 iloveyou guys!:D especially Chester Bennington'<3(:
